With zsh 5.0.2-3 the paths are still being appended to the end of the file, after '# End of file' mark: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/zsh&id=5240807fdcf8721bf6c1ec9041ef2da62546e78b

IMO, we should remove the end of file marker. It's silly, and so is this bug report.
